This film has a unique style, compact links, gorgeous and magnificent special effects, and the setting is also very surprising and novel. The film mainly tells the story of Ender, after experiencing the necessary tribulations of the protagonist, growing into a brilliant commander and eventually destroying a race in the "game".
The film is set in the near future, when a fleet of insectoids from an alien galaxy invaded Earth, killing tens of millions of people and almost completely destroying human defenses. At the moment of crisis, the hero Maze Rehan piloted a fighter jet into the Zerg aircraft carrier, blocking the pace of expansion of the invaders and winning precious time for the survival of mankind.
At this point, human beings have united for the first time in history to jointly form the Space Operations Department. Humans have spent years screening the best and brightest young people around the globe and organizing them to join combat schools built on orbital space stations, and Ender is one of them.
Ender's birth is a special case, in this dangerous world, every family can not have a third child, but because Ender's parents have super high intelligence, Ender's brothers and sisters are not surprisingly genius. It's just that the brother is too cruel and the sister is too emotional, and these personalities doom them to become a good commander.
In this case, Ender was born, and his super high intelligence, tenacity, and extraordinary abilities made him the most promising candidate for commander. However, the birth of a hero is always accompanied by pain and mission, being treated as a freak and isolated, and Ender's growth has experienced various difficult situations. At the same time, he is also the last most talented commander candidate of mankind, carrying the hope of human survival.
The final ending of the film does not have any suspense, and the male protagonist wins a big victory. However, in the way of victory, the film sets up an unexpected but reasonable plot. The male protagonist has been using virtual games for war command training, and in the last simulated battle, he won the victory with a new way of playing.
However, after Ender completes the seemingly insurmountable task, he is told that the war is real, not a simulation game. Many people have lost their lives in each of the human carriers Ender commanded, and at the same time, the "game" has wiped out all life on the Zerg mother star.
"One will make a thousand bones dry"! In this war, which has changed from anti-aggression to massacre, the idea that human beings are not of our race, their hearts must be different, fully demonstrated. After learning the truth, Ender could not accept his act of destroying a race, and eventually took the surviving Last Worm and sailed the starship on the road to salvation.
